I have repeatedly observed the snails in my back garden digging into my freshly sown lawn. On removing them they leave a hole about 3-4cm deep, one had even laid its eggs and they were clearly visible. Fascinated, I tried to 'harvest' them for a bit of a science project with my daughter but squished them in the process! I am fascinated by this behavior as it is something I have never seen before.
Grasshoppers dig holes to lay there eggs.
In the wild, they dig holes in the sand on a beach and lay their eggs there.
Green Iguanas (female) will dig holes in the ground to lay eggs. She will dig additional holes to confuse would-be egg poachers. After that she leaves the eggs, the hatchlings will grow up by themselves.
They dig holes for their egg laying with ovipositer.
No they don't. They lay there eggs on the tree branches in a really deep nest...
When snails lay eggs they are acting out the natural process of reproduction.
Animals that dig tunnels for their eggs include sea turtles, which bury their eggs in holes on sandy beaches, and ants, which create underground chambers to protect and incubate their eggs. Other examples include ground-nesting birds like plovers and burrowing owls, which dig tunnels or burrows to lay their eggs.
they dig down in the dirt a few centimeters
yes
It depends on the type of snail. Maybe 30 to 20 eggs depends on the tip of the snail. Snails that lay their eggs in aquarium's tend to give birth from 200 to 300 eggs. Snails can only lay 2 at a time. Hermaphroditic snails lay about 80 eggs 6 times a year. Most land snails lay 40 to 60 eggs (according to some authors even 100). Well that's all I know about how many eggs a snail lays a year! :)
Kiwi lay their eggs in a burrow which they dig in the ground.
they dig to get warmer, like a sand blanket, they usually start to dig when they get older.
